Yeah it was in Poland, and they were going to ban The Teletubbies because they thought it encouraged homosexuality =/. Apparantly the reason Tinky Winky has a hand bag is because he needs a bag and the first bag small children first play with is their mothers handbag, makes sense to me :P
Lol, Kitty I could imagine that happening. "Dear Lord, we pray-" *THUMP* *snore* :P
There are no gangs at our school as far as I'm aware (apart from maybe slight influence from paramilitary groups but I'm pretty sure there's none of that). The school is just obsessed with image, and they think that guys with long hair look untidy. Lots of people I've talked to think he is going to lose simply because it's him versus the Department for Education i.e. the government =/ I for one hope he wins, and I'm writing about it in the school's e-newspaper hopefully :D
If humans didn't exist would the world have a point? There would be no-one to record the wonders of the Earth, no-one to appreciate it's beauty and wonder. And I think your view of humanity is a gross over-simplification. The people doing that main damage are in the minority. Do you see people in your street stamping on plants and shooting out of the sky for the heck of it? No. Pollution is a long term problem, it will take decades if not centuries to sort out. If you can think of a way of stopping creating pollution right now without causing the complete collapse of civilisation and the death of millions, I'd like to hear it. I'm all for protecting the environment, but I'm sick of people saying "OMG STOP POLLUTING!!" and not offering up any relalistic and practical method of doing so. All you are doing is making noise and pushing possible supporters of your cause away.
I agree with many of the things you've just said Repliku, but I don't think I've ever heard of an instance where a group of gay people have attacked a straight person just for being straight without provcation. Perhaps some evidence is in order? Also, gay parades happen because gay people are still pretty much in the minority and I went to one recently. It was to celebrate 40 years of homosexuality being legal in NI. There was no violence, from either side. Also, some people just crave attention. As you said before, just because they also happen to be gay doesn't mean there is any correlation. But I do agree that some people do take it too far, but again they are a minority. With any group there is a minority that is wrong in their actions. The reason it is still such a big deal is because when something has to be fought over, the fight never truely ends. Like with women's rights, now the problem is that men are starting to lose out to women. A healthy and equal balance generally never exists =/. Argh, I think I have more to say on this issue, but I can't think :S. On-topic (LOL) - I think gay marriage is competely fine in everyway, and I have evidence that gay marriage will not destroy the earth here, it's near the bottom :P. I think that making a fuss over it in ANY way, either positive or negative, is wrong. People shouldn't even bat an eyelash. It is normal, there should be no extra reaction than "Isn't this a nice wedding?" and people being happy for the couple, whatever their gender.
At my school it is against the rules for boys to have hair touching the collar..............and they have finally got their comuppins :D. A boy in the year below me (his name is Darryl x]) was told by his head of year to get his hair cut or he would be suspended. Luckily Darryl's dad is a lawyer and he had with him a document drrawn up by lawyers stating that they would support him in a legal battle (i.e. sueing) against the school if they threaten suspension over his hair. My question to you, is this a case of sexual prejudice? Boys are not allowed long hair because they are boys, but girls can have long or short hair. Also, many other schools have no such regulation in their policy, so why should our school have it? Lol, all the teachers have stopped saying things about people's hair for now in case of further legal action :P
First of all, you are thinking of nuclear fission which is the splitting of atoms by colliding them together. That is the dangerous one, that is the one that produces large amounts of dangerous radiation. Admittedly, fusion still produces radioactive substances, but nowhere near the same level as fission. Also, a working fusion generator (i.e. one that has run for like more than a day -__-) has still to be created (although a few are in construction). After that, a way of making them commercially viable will be needed. Fusion is harnessing the power of the sun on earth, and is IMO the way forward in terms of electrical generation. Secondly, wind is all good, but produces very little electricity compared to fossil fuels. With hydrogen cells, you could power cars AND the national grid (I'd like to see you drive around with a wind turbine on your car) with the only byproduct being water. Again, the problem is building an economically viable prototype that is safe enough to be used by the public (hydrogen is extremely flamable and explosive, see Hindenburg Disaster. Link for Nuclear Fusion and Hydrogen Cells. Do you know that at night plants respire? Meaning, they breathe like we do at night, taking in oxygen and giving out CO2. Plants help the environment by trapping carbon dioxide. The ocean also does this. In liquids the solubility of gases increases when it is colder, this means that during the night and winter the oceans can hold more CO2, while in summer and during the day they let it out. (Lol, btw the symbol for carbon dioxide is CO2, sorry pet hate drilled into me by my chemistry teacher -__-').
I have read Outbound Flight, Hard Contact, and Betrayal. Does anyone know what order the Betrayal series goes in? I also have Sacrifice but I don't want to read it if it's not the second book >_> I love the books, it really fleshes out the Star Wars universe, and the story lines are amazing.
I told you, it's me silly :P Now where did I put that special thermometer.........;D
Only if you want it to ;;;;D
........someone could prove beyond any doubt that God didn't exist? Would you want to listen? Would anyone listen for that matter? Would you rather live on thinking God existed and happy, but wrong/ignorant, or know the truth? Also, if you were the person who could prove this would you tell anyone? Would you be willing to shatter the lives of billions across the world just to get a truth out? Sorry if this isn't 'Debate Corner' material, please move it/PM a mod if it isn't ^^
>.< I never get any patients >_> And that bedpan was used >_>;; *drips*
Coooooooooooooooooming~ ;D
You can't blame humanity for everything, how do you know there isn't some natural cause? The world goes through warming and cooling phases. Species go extinct all the time, it's part of evolution. The strong survive and the weak die off. But, I am not saying humanity didn't have a part in it, because we definitely did. But most of the damage was done years ago out of ignorance of the consequences. Damage done today is done because of a lack of ethics. Also, saying that we are all fncked because of humanity, you wouldn't exist if humanity didn't exist so that's quite a contradiction >_>
I have been in her office o' doom and that is indeed how she bosses her evil minions around *goes to do some bidding*
It is impossible to complete pollution completely. You have to be realistic with these things. You can't expect every American/European to stop driving their cars and take public transport just because you tell them to. It would never work, and would make little of a difference. We need long term solutions, like clean and renewable energy sources, such as nuclear fusion and hydrogen cells.
Are you any relation of Top Cat? :P
You do realise that there is next to nothing that we can do to help? I wouldn't trust charities with my money unless I saw exactly what it was paying for and that the people actually received it at the other end.
I don't think it could have got anymore magical. >_> The awards were good, they are went up and said "Sorry, I don't speak very good English" then went and sat down XD
If you could be anything or anyone, what/who would you be? :3
